- Photonic crystal - Photonic crystals are periodic optical (nano)structures that are designed to affect the motion of photons in a similar way that periodicity of a semiconductor crystal affects the motion of electrons. Photonic crystals occur in nature and in various forms have been studied by science for the last 100 ...
- Photonic-crystal fiber - Photonic-crystal fiber (PCF), also spelled fibre, is a new class of optical fiber based on the properties of photonic crystals. Because of its ability to confine light in hollow cores or with confinement characteristics not possible in conventional optical fiber, PCF is now finding applications in fiber-optic communications, fiber lasers, nonlinear devices, high-power transmission, highly sensitive gas sensors, and other areas.
- Eli Yablonovitch - Eli Yablonovitch along with Sajeev John, was one of the two physicists who invented the field of photonic crystals in 1987. In addition to pioneering photonic crystals, he was the first to recognize that a strained quantum well laser has a significantly reduced threshold current compared to its unstrained counterpart.
- Autocloning - Autocloning is a proprietary method of fabricating 2D and 3D photonic crystals for free space applications.
